Mixed Reactions to PM Modi's Fast-Track Courts for Paper Leaks Amid Student Protests

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement of fast-track courts to address paper leak cases in exams has sparked a mix of support and criticism.The decision, aimed at ensuring exemplary punishment for those involved in leaking exam papers, was welcomed by some government officials and institutions like Delhi University.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi criticized the government for prioritizing political posturing over substantive reform, while AAP leaders accused Modi of shielding his ministers from accountability.Meanwhile, home minister Amit Shah praised the move as a reflection of the government's commitment to youth welfare.The protests, now in their 48th day, continue with supporters gathering at Jantar Mantar, demanding justice and transparency.
